Obama Killed Before Osama Thanks To Media Typos

Being useless at English myself, I will be the last one to criticise other people’s mistakes. I just find weird that, in the middle of the rush to get the news out, many people killed Obama instead of Osama tonight.

From MSNBC’s correspondant Norah O’Donnell – who tweeted “Obama shot and killed” citing citing NBC Chief Pentagon Correspondent Jim Miklaszewski as the source – to the BBC News site. And of course, Fox News. That may have been a Freudian slip and not a typo, though.

    Fox doing that isn’t any more surprising than them calling disgraced Republicans Democrats.

    I made the same joke on my facebook, looking to strike at some birther/secret muslim friends.
